Just curious if there are any other consumers of the winter seasonal Genesee Bock Beer. I'm a buyer of large quantities each year. My favorite.

 

This years batch seems to be off. Not tasting right. At all.

 

Am I the only one ?

 

I'd appreciate any opinions on the 2016 batch of Genny Bock.

 

Many thanks everybody.

Can't vouch for that, but I recently had a few Genny Salted Caramel Chocolate Porters. Very yummy & not priced like a Genny at all

I had some the other night...I usually buy 2 cases each winter. It had a skunky taste...almost like rotting wheat strewn across an icy road covered in vegetable oil used too long. It was a very unique taste and I'm not sure exactly how to describe it.

Fergy- so what you're saying is that it tasted exactly as You'd expect any Genny product to taste?

C'mon mannnn...Genny beer has that light, clean taste that is attributable to the water source used in their recipe...the headwaters of Onondaga Lake are what source this promising seasonal brew. It's just that this year's batch has that soft undercurrent of a fisher found in a trap in mid-October...almost like the aroma of dates and figs that have been dipped in a bottle of pickle juice. Come to think of it...it has hints of a plastic container full of rotting vegetables that someone might eat for lunch.

But do any of those change after you've had a few?

Pretty much all of them change.... He becomes a self serving, arrogant, hot head who cares not for his clients.... Wait a second..... You should be a CO!

 

Genny, made from the muddy piss waters of the Onondaga...

 

I think I found their new slogan
